Looking at the System's newly released mission, Lu Ze couldn't help but frown.Neither the Medicinal Pills nor the Secret Realm rewards were the most important.The crucial point was that the Demonic Path intended to ambush the Righteous Path.If this matter truly escalated and led to another Righteous-Demonic War, the world would once again be without peace.Without peace, his grand gaming enterprise would certainly be unable to develop.Lu Ze absolutely could not allow the Demonic Path's ambush to succeed.According to Nangong Yuan, Cultivators above the Nascent Soul Stage could not enter that Secret Realm.Although Lu Ze only had Golden Core Middle Stage cultivation, with his Cultivation Technique and immortal body, and having secretly learned so many skills from powerful figures, he was bound to be invincible among those of the same stage.Even if a Nascent Soul Cultivator came, he could still fight them.As long as he went, the Demonic Path would definitely not be able to cause any trouble.After thinking this, he decisively changed his mind and accepted the mission to the Secret Realm.......Three days later.Yunling Hall.“Lu Ze, although you entered the Dao through the Illusion Realm, the world is vast, and you must go out and gain experience after all.”Chao Wendao patted Lu Ze's shoulder earnestly, then beckoned to Zhong Yi behind him.“Zhong Yi.”“Here.”“Since this is Lu Ze’s first time venturing out, you and Mu Yawen shall accompany him.”“Yes!”Seeing that Chao Wendao had dispatched Zhong Yi and Mu Yawen to escort him, Lu Ze felt even more at ease.Although Zhong Yi was a bit weak in the Illusion Realm, in reality, he was a genuine Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator.Ninety-nine percent of Demonic Cultivators were no match for him.“Rebellious Disciple, take these protective Magic Treasures.”Nangong Yuan pulled out a handful of protective Magic Treasures from his storage ring and stuffed them into Lu Ze’s hand.“Reality is not an Illusion Realm; if you encounter someone you can’t defeat, run. Never try to be brave!”Lu Ze examined the quality of the Magic Treasures and pouted, “Cheap Magic Treasures given by a cheap Master.”“You Rebellious Disciple…”Nangong Yuan was so angry his beard bristled.“That is a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm with cultivation restrictions; Magic Treasures exceeding a certain quality will be ineffective!”Lu Ze chuckled, “Then this Disciple thanks his cheap Master!”...After some preparations, Lu Ze immediately headed to the Secret Realm under the guidance of Zhong Yi and Mu Yawen.Lingxiao Sect was located within the Great Zhou territory, not far from the Western border, only a day's journey away.“Senior Brother Zhong, what exactly is the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm like inside?”Lu Ze asked curiously during their journey.“It's ever-changing; all sorts of things can be found... but there is only one treasure land within it.”“Within the treasure land, there are usually Restrictions or traps that need to be broken before the sole Secret Treasure can be obtained.”“As far as I know, the Disciples sent by other Sects for experience are all Golden Core Late Stage. Junior Brother Lu, you should just treat this as gaining experience. As for the Secret Treasure, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future; there’s no need to rush.”A Golden Core Stage Secret Realm, while somewhat dangerous, was not overly difficult.Generally, it was used by the Five Great Sects as a training ground for their Core Disciples.Qingshan Sect, for some unknown reason, did not participate, while the other four Great Sects each sent one Disciple to gain experience.To some extent, whichever Sect's Disciple obtained the Secret Treasure, that Sect would gain more prestige.Therefore, everyone sent out their most outstanding Golden Core Late Stage Disciples.Lingxiao Sect dispatching Lu Ze, who had just advanced to the Golden Core Stage, made everyone aware of Chao Wendao’s favoritism towards Lu Ze.“By the way, why did Elder Chao want Senior Brother Zhong and Senior Brother Mu to escort me?”Lu Ze asked again.“There have been incidents in the past where the Demonic Path ambushed our Five Great Sects’ Disciples. Perhaps he was worried that Junior Brother Lu might encounter misfortune when going out?”Zhong Yi stroked his chin, speculated for a moment, then showed an indifferent smile.“But, with the strength of those Demonic Cultivators, they only dare to bully Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Disciples; they would never dare to bully Golden Core Stage Cultivators.”“Besides, even if they dared to come, how many Demonic Path Cultivators would be a match for me? Hahaha…”“Uh… why are you two looking at me like that…?”Zhong Yi's laughter stopped halfway, leaving him awkwardly in place.“Senior Brother Zhong, wait, I’ll send a message to Master and Senior Brother Zhou…”Even the honest Mu Yawen had to pull out her communication Jade Slip.Lu Ze couldn't help but panic a little too.Zhong Yi had been a jinx too many times in the Illusion Realm; when he suddenly spoke in reality, Lu Ze couldn't help but shiver.Fortunately, he quickly realized that this was not the Illusion Realm.Zhong Yi's jinxing seemed to be particularly effective only when it came to the Illusion Realm.However, the System had already warned him that the Demonic Path had set up an ambush.So, this really wasn't Zhong Yi's fault.It was just that after this incident, the poor Senior Brother Zhong would probably really start to doubt his Holy Speech Spiritual Root.........At the same time.Inside the Secret Realm in the Western border of Great Zhou.A group of black-clad Demonic Path Cultivators were busy within the Secret Realm.On the hard, sharp spikes and the specially made stone steps, dense runes were carved.Several Cultivators specializing in Secret Realm creation were frantically engraving various runes and Formations.“Can these traps really injure Golden Core Stage Cultivators?”The leader of the Demonic Path squad asked cautiously again.“Deputy Leader Liu, rest assured… This is an exclusive trap Secret Manual I bought with a hefty sum from a Loose Cultivator’s market!”Standing beside the squad leader, his sharp-faced, monkey-jawed confidant confidently pulled out an ancient book that looked very old.“Think about it, when it was first made, didn't you, with your skill, also get hit by it?”Upon hearing this, Liu Dumu felt a little more at ease.Not long ago, they received intelligence.The Five Great Sects would conduct a Core Disciple trial in this Secret Realm.Everyone coming was a new generation of elites, future Prodigies!Before this, their occasional actions were limited to ambushing Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment Disciples who were out for trials.With such frequent actions, there was always someone escorting them.They hadn't conducted such an attack in many years.Golden Core Stage Cultivators were not much in the Righteous Path.But in the Demonic Path, where talent was scarce, a Deputy Leader was only at the Golden Core or Nascent Soul level.Originally, they wouldn't dare to do this.Recently, they obtained an ancient book of traps called “if you're a Cultivator, then descend 100 floors”, which contained extremely insidious traps!Coupled with the fact that the treasure land of this Heavenly Dao Secret Realm had Restrictions that limited movement techniques.This created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them!Their plan was simple.Ambush at the treasure land and set up traps in advance.Utilize the Restrictions near the treasure land that limited movement techniques, combined with traps hidden with killing intent everywhere!It was simply a flawless method!Those sharp spikes made of special materials and engraved with runes could not be destroyed by Golden Core Stage Cultivators.As long as one ran into them, it would be either death or ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) severe injury!Even if all those who came were Golden Core Late Stage Cultivators, they would absolutely be unable to resist their encirclement while injured!“Hehehe…”Thinking of this, Liu Dumu let out a chilling laugh.“How much cultivation will the flesh and blood of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator increase for me…?”“So excited! So very excited!!!”
